HUANG YI & KUKA weaves together the art of modern dance and the science of mechanical engineering in a series of stunning vignettes between live dancers from the Huang Yi Studio and KUKA, a robot conceptualized and programmed by Huang Yi, an acclaimed Taiwanese choreographer, dancer, and inventor. A seamless synthesis of human movement and innovation, HUANG YI & KUKA is a groundbreaking work that celebrates the future of humanity and technology and has captivated global audiences.
